1. How can each of the two contemporary situational theories of leadership discussed in the chapter-the leader-exchange model (LMX)and the Hersey and Blanchard model-help to explain Oviedo's success as a leader at Numi? Which of the two is more useful? Why?
2. Use the concept of transformational leadership to explain as fully as possible Oviedo's approach to leadership and the reasons for her success. Can the model of charismatic leadership or the attribution perspective on leadership be used to provide any additional insights into Oviedo's approach and success?
3. How does the idea of the leader as coach help to explain Oviedo's approach to leadership? Judging from the video, would you say that Oviedo's gender plays a role in her success as a leader? If so, how so?
